Winslow will join fellow USA Basketball teammates Jahlil Okafor and Tyus Jones in a recruiting class that will undoubtedly be ranked as the nation’s best. Okafor, a 6-10 power forward from Chicago, and Jones, a 6-2 point guard from Minnesota, signed their national letters of intent last week.

The 6-foot-6 Houston native announced his decision at St. John’s School on Thursday by putting on a Duke hat and saying “Next year I will be attending Duke University to play for Coach K.” He was then sprayed with silly string by his friends in celebration.

Duke has also signed a fourth top-25 recruit, Florida shooting guard Grayson Allen.

“We’re ecstatic about the four young men that are coming to Duke,” Krzyzewski said in a release issued shortly after Winslow’s announcement. “Grayson Allen committed to us very early. We believe he’s an explosive wing. Terrific offensive and defensive player.

“We consider Jahlil Okafor as good a big man as there is in the country, but not just a big man, we think he’s a great basketball player. He’s had an amazing amount of experience playing for the United States and for a great high school program.

“In Tyus Jones, I think we have the best point guard in the country. Someone who has won state championships, USA championships and is the consummate leader on the court.

“Justise Winslow is a great wing player. He is a guy that can guard every position and is an amazing rebounder and scorer. The great thing about all four of the kids is that they want to share a spotlight and they want to be on a great team. They’re team first guys, even though they have this excellent amount of individual talent.”
